Hi, I am looking for some quality speakers for outdoor use that can blend in with Patio planters or rocks so they are invisible. A pair for under 600. Any advice would be much appreciated. I have a big backyard so I need something powerfull and of very good quality.

Thanks

I just bought a pair of these yesterday, in fact:

http://www.amazon.com/Polk-Audio-Atrium-All-Weather-Speaker/dp/B00006I5O0

They're not exactly what you're looking for (ie: they actually look like a speaker, and not a rock or a garden gnome), but they sound remarkably good for the price.

Granted I'm driving them with a NAD 2150, but still...

I'd say something along the lines of the Polk speakers David posted would be your best bet. A "rock" speaker simply has too much going against it in terms of placement to be very good.

I do need something that does not look like a speaker. Since it will be in open, any speaker would have problem giving accurate sound. A planter, rock, or some other shape is what I need. Any one know of a good outdoor rock/planter speaker.
